Iroko Beams: Performance & Commercial Utility
Iroko Beams stand as one of the most reliable and highly durable structural timber options available to the modern commercial trade. Renowned as a premium alternative to European Oak, their outstanding natural resistance to moisture and decay makes them a premier material choice for heavy duty landscaping, marine applications, and exposed architectural frameworks. The timber features an attractive interlocking grain that silvers beautifully when exposed to the elements, or can be easily treated with oils to maintain its rich golden brown hues.
Because the species possesses such exceptional longevity in demanding environments, its application is strictly optimised for exterior use or bespoke external ground contact installations. Sourced strictly from responsible and sustainable forestry operations, our structurally graded beams are carefully inspected for complete integrity, ensuring immense load bearing capabilities during subsequent commercial assembly.
Fully certified commercial timber sourced strictly from responsibly managed global forests.
Rapid haulage schedules delivering direct to your commercial site or manufacturing facility.
Premium grade timber precision machined to exact architectural and structural tolerances.
Highly trusted and consistently specified by volume contractors and commercial joiners.
Over 180 years of combined industry experience driving our dedicated procurement team.
